Vehicle detection based on deep learning
Vehicle detection is a challenging problem in autonomous driving systems, due to its large structural and appearance variations. In recent years convolutional neural networks (CNN) have achieved great success. Presently the state-of-art R-CNN and YOLO architectures are explored, implemented, and adopted for performance comparison on real-time data. From the experimental results, the R-CNN has faster detecting speed and accuracy in complex scenes. However, the transfer learning-based CNN model can be further analyzed and validated over other datasets and can be carried out. In comparison to the state-of-art, the proposed transfer learning approach may accurately regress the vehicle shape and classify vehicle fine-grained categories. Presently, the performances are validated over the UA-DETRAC datasets. The obtained performance strongly suggests the RCNN and has better classification accuracy. The proposed transfer learning approach can be a better alternative competing to the state-of-art approaches.

Implementation of CAN BUs in designing of smart vehicle control system using ARM7 Microprocessor
The reliable and high speed data communication between the sensing devices and actuating devices through a controller is the real time requirement in an automobile. The higher the speed lessens response time in critical situation. The parameter such as ABS, airbags, engine temperature need on time response. Otherwise the whole system may met with severe collapse or some time may threaten life also. To make all the factor be in a system that performs better, the communication between the controller with sensing and actuating devices should be with in a frame of high speed communication. The CAN bus is highly reliable and provides high speed communication between control input and resultant output. The earlier generation of CAN is a point to point communication that was using more number of wire. As a result, wired load lags the system speed. This is a major issue when threat is so critical. To overcome all these drawbacks CAN was introduced that reduces the load on system. CAN offers higher flexibility and expandability. The integration of CAN bus with automobile industry is new perception that created a proper link in controlling devices. The factors such as headlight, engine, wiper, door lock, car speed and location tracking are analyzed and taken a valid action against them. The director of the project is Advanced RISC Machine (ARM) 7 LPC2129 microprocessor. In CAN bus the communication arisen with the help of CAN Transceiver. The CAN transceiver is responsible for the CAN communication. The MASTER and SLAVE is controlled by CAN controller. The CAN communication enhances the flexibility, performance and security of the system.

School van safety and surveillance system
Now a day’s school van accidents are increasing day by day. This is mainly due to the negligence of van drivers. The major causes of accidents are due to alcohol consumption by the driver, over-speed, etc. It's always a headache for the parents to think about the safer journey of their children. It would be very convenient if there is a system to decrease these types of accidents. This Project is a new idea to implement the different kinds of safety features in the vehicle. If the driver consumed alcohol then the alcohol sensor senses the consumption of alcohol and stops the ignition of the vehicle at that instant. It also sends a message to all the parents and the police station nearby with the exact location using a GPS sensor used in our project. If the speed of the vehicle crosses the specified limit system, first it gives an alarm to the driver to let him know that he is over speeding and if still, he continues, it sends alerting message to the parents and concerned authorities. In case of any accident takes place, that also will be notified to nearby police stations and parents of all the students inside the bus. This system sends the information to the parents about the arrival of the bus prior to one-stop, also parents can access the information about the current location of the bus anytime. The phenomenon of forgetting kids on the bus is one of the problems suffered by the children. This project, through the entry and exit recordings, aims to create a suitable environment by following a certain set of criteria of security and safety for school buses that will have a positive impact on the student and their family. When a complete prototype of the proposed system is implemented, the system will promise safer transportation of school children.

Synthesis and characterization of (Zn) doped Bismuth Titranate (BZT) ceramics
The thesis presents the effect of Zn on the structural, and dielectric properties of Bismuth Titranate ceramic with variation of temperature. The composition (Bi(1-x)Znx)4 Ti3O12(x=0.1 -0.4) was synthesized by solid-state route. The phase formation of the compounds are studied via X-ray diffraction analysis which revealed that the compositions are of orthorhombic symmetry. The dielectric behaviour with variation of temeparture shows an enhancement in phase transition temperature and decrement in dielectric constant with rise of Zn content.

SpO2 measurement and analysis for improvement in shooting performance
SpO2 is a parameter that is widely used to measure the oxygen saturation level in the blood. During times of COVID 19 too, SpO2 was being used widely to assess the wellbeing of a patient. The concept of SpO2 is now applied to shooting sport to find the right timing of the shot. This timing is dependent on the individual shooter as each person’s capacities would be different. The principles outlined here could be used to understand the optimal triggering time of any shooter.

Understanding the people’s willingness to change their intensions towards bicycle
Bicycles are the easiest and cheapest form of mode of transport which can be used to reduce pollution and other environmental negative externalities. Recently, with the awareness of its benefits, many cities around the world have successfully adopted bicycles in form of sharing scheme and inspired by this, Gandhinagar, the administrative capital of Gujarat also took initiatives to introduce Bike share Program. The planned city of Gandhinagar, compared to the other cities are endowed with a better bicycle-friendly environment with wide congestion free roads and surplus tree coverage, but yet saw a decline in the use of bicycles from the stands. Hence it becomes necessary to know the factors that stimulate individual to use (or not to use) the bicycles. As to modify the travel patterns, it is necessary to under- stand in detail the behavior of individuals and the reasons why they choose (or do not chose) a particular mode of transport. The aim of the present study was to understand the difference in the factors which determines people’s willingness to adopt bicycling in Gandhinagar. In order to recognize these factors, use of Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) components and the concept of transtheoretical model of change (TTM) were used. The study included a sample of 147 people drawn from the general public who already knew how to bicycle, traveled frequently every day and lived in the precincts of Gandhinagar. The results to an extent confirmed that the constructs, as measured by the TRA, only distinguished difference between Precontemplation, Contemplation, and Maintainers successfully, with exception of Active group which overall failed to form a linear relationship between all the stages. But in overall, the aggregate values of attitude are very low in all the stages with very small variations between them. Especially in case of their perceived benefits and the barriers, Majority of people agreed that cycling is good for their health and that it is an environmentally sound way to commute and similarly was observed in there perceived barriers especially the climatic related barriers. What differentiated them were the aspects of their personal and social norms, flexibility and their intentions which became more positive with advancing stages except the group who were already using bicycles in their daily basis (Active). The study also discussed about the short-term benefits of flexibility, which showed a very strong relationship with the process of change, and how the negative barriers has to be addressed and taken seriously if we wanted to persist a change in their decision to change. Implications of the current findings about the description of different characteristics which evolved out from the constructs were discussed in detail and ending the paper with plausible recommendation.
